Guess the 20 random songs from my collection by recognising the first line below;
- I lived alone... my mind was blank.... I needed time to think - to get the memories from my mind...
- I was working at the club in 1995, Sunday was the night when the Gay crowd came alive...
- Ooo Ooo... While the sun hangs in the sky and the desert has sand - while the waves crash in the sea and meet the land...
- Laying on the bathroom floor... kitty licks my cheek once more...
- AAAhhhhh Crazy blowing over with ideas, thousand ways to move a lover so sincere...
- Slip Inside The Eye Of Your Mind....
- Think of London - A small city. But dark - dark in the daytime. People sleep - sleep in the daytime. If they want to. If they want to.
- I could paint a picture with a pin, but a song would only scratch the skin...
- I recommend getting your heart trampled on to anyone, I recommend walking around naked in your living room...
- Papa I know you're going to be upset cos I was always your little girl...
- Here I go out to sea again, the sunshine fills my hair and dreams hang in the air...
- Everybody's restless and they've got no place to go. Someone's always trying to tell them something they already know...
- Children, behave - that's what they say when we're together.
- If you listen you can hear it - it's the laughter in the street. It's the motion and the music...
- Salty leave.... Salty Leave.... tell me the one about the friend you knew and the last good night that we toasted to...
- What do you get when you fall in love?
- There's a man I meet, lives up our street. He's a worker the council. Has been twenty years...
- She says there's ants in the carpets, dirty little monsters....
- There is lambs wool under my naked feet. The wool is soft and warm - gives off some kind of heat...
- I could feel at the time there was no way of knowing - fallen leaves in the night, who can say where they're blowing.... as free as the wind...
Guesses on the comment form below - honour and glory awaits the brave musical traveller.
And I promise there's none from Labyrinth this time.

6 - Don't look back in anger - Oasis
ReplyDelete10 - Papa don't preach - Madonna
12 - is it Belle & Sebastian? Can't remember the name of the song but I could hum it to you.
13 - I think we're alone now... was that Tiffany?
16 - I'll never fall in love again. I'll take a wild stab at the singer and say Nancy Sinatra.
18 - End of a Century - Blur
Gabstar
Agree with Gabster on 6 and 10 and 13.
ReplyDelete9 - I know this but will need to walk around with it in my head for a day or two before i is revealed to me..
16 - I'm thinking someone like Dionne Warwick...?
Others - haven't got a clue
16 has been recorded by loads of people.My version is by Elvis Costello.
ReplyDeleteAll of the lovely Gabstar's guesses were right except 12, which might be a cover, but since I can't hear her humming it I don't know.
And the version of 13 was by Lene Lovich but yeah, it was Tiffany too.
I thought you'd get the first one, though Gary. Not a big Hair Metal fan?
ReplyDelete(clue! clue!)
Finally got no. 9. Its Alanis Morissette with 'You Learn'. Told you it would come back to me if I let it noodle around inside my head...
ReplyDelete17. That's now sounding familiar. Hang on... "Dignity" by Prefab Spr- No! It's Deep Blue Some- No! Hang on.. Hang on... Deacon Blue!
1. Still no idea about this one. Apparently I'm not a big Hair Metal fan... (Not Whitenake is it? or Def Leppard?)
OK Al, how's this?
ReplyDelete'Hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm-hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm h-hmm...'
